Previously I was using v 3.0.4 of Mira on a 32 bit machine, now ive tried it on a 64bit machine with v3.4. When I run the command with the suggested modifications, this is what i get: Loading backbone from FASTA file: indica_backbone_in.fasta (quality: indica_backbone_in.fasta.qual) Could not find FASTA quality file indica_backbone_in.fasta.qual, using default values for these reads. Localtime: Tue May 8 12:38:17 2012 Counting sequences in FASTA file: [0%] ....|.... [10%] ....|.... [20%] ....|.... [30%] ....|.... [40%] ....|.... [50%] ....|.... [60%] ....|.... [70%] ....|....

[100%] Localtime: Tue May 8 12:40:15 2012 rnm size: 0 No FASTA quality file given, using default qualities for all reads just loaded. Localtime: Tue May 8 12:40:37 2012 Done. Loaded 66338 reads with 89026397 raw bases. 0 reads have quality accounted for. Localtime: Tue May 8 12:40:37 2012 Generated 0 unique strain ids for 66338 reads. Killed I dont know how to make it work. And is there a way to specify for the 454 sequences that should be assembled on to the backbone.? Thanks.
